Even Sean Marks truthers recognize this is his last chance. And an 0-4 start, largely driven by deficiencies he did not address in the off-season, are a harsh reality for his performance. I will still give him this season but that's it for my support.
Brooklyn has:
• 13 future firsts (most in the NBA)
• $61.6M of room under the second apron (most in the NBA)
• the youngest roster in the league
Nets World wants Sean Marks fired after 0-3. I think that's crazy.

Boy that's a rough loss for Brooklyn. So many chances to put Boston away in overtime. One bad decision after another by Mikel Brown, but hard to blame a rookie guard in his third game and not the third-year head coach Jordi Fernández for better preparing his team for a moment like that. Keeping Brown in the game for a defense-only possession says it all to me about how ill-prepared Fernandez was. And the Nets remain winless.
This better be the JJ McCarthy moment for Mikel Brown Jr. Last minute heroics fall short of the Win but you just can't put him back on the bench after what he showed tonight.
Tell the performance team to come up with a new plan.

Jameis Winston scored a rushing TD and then had the team play duck, duck, goose as a TD celebration 😂😂
I get how starved Nets fans are for a star but can we please just let the folks whose job it is to assess readiness and long term health do their job?
We aren't winning shit this year. There's no need to rush anything.
Based on all the comments here it seems fans forgot he had a back injury in college that caused him to miss 12 games. They are being cautious and ramping him up slowly.
This season is the litmus test. Game 1 isn't enough but it's a rough start.
Is it honestly any surprise that when we wanted to lose games, we kept finding ways to win?
And now that we want to win games... Well, I guess we know how that's going to go.
This has been a really hard game to try and enjoy. They are going to be really bad defensively this year. So far, Vegas had it right.
